Summary
Derek... had no idea what to say. Or how to react. Or what to even feel.
What the hell was going on?
He immediately went to YouTube to check his video, and the first thing he noticed was that his subscriber count had indeed changed, just as he’d suspected.
Except not in the direction he’d anticipated.
When he’d gone to bed, he’d still been a few thousand subscribers away from one million. Something like seventeen or eighteen thousand away.
He was now staring at his subscriber count sitting at over one million by a fair margin.
“What the fuck?” he whispered to himself, and went to look at his newest video about AllAboutMischief. It was sitting at three-hundred thousand views in the first hour, and had more comments than he’d ever gotten on any of his videos since he began uploading.
“What the fuck?” he whispered again, a little more desperately.

Summary
So, if you look up Farkas's skill stats, they might surprise you...
On one of my Skyrim play-throughs, I did the thing where you drop a piece of armor near Farkas and then tell him he can have it when he asks, and that makes him available as a follower... so I took Farkas with me all over Skyrim even though I'd only started the Companion's quest line.
That prompted me to look some things up and come up with a few head-cannons...
So here’s the story that I tried to make tie everything in my head together...“Farkas is intrigued when he meets a small imperial archer and is unexpectedly caught up in her adventures. As he learns more about her he soon decides he’ll do everything he can to protect her... and that promise takes him places he never imagined he’d go... and changes the course of everything...”
(I feel like the series of tags above is a better summary than this...)

She could feel his breath stirring the fine hairs on her forehead and she was panicking. She knew exactly what would happen if she tipped her face up to look at him. She could sense how both of them wrestled with it, knowing there was no way to take it back once it happened. And yet he stood there clutching her hand against his pounding heart, and she stood there letting him.
Or,
Aloy and Erend fall for each other, the GAIA gang comes up with an alternative plan for dealing with HEPHAESTUS

Summary
Astarion is absolutely drunk on her blood, the exquisiteness of feeding on her the closest thing he has ever had to a religious experience. It is, in no uncertain terms, the most divine thing he has ever tasted.
He knows he's using her. She should mean nothing to him – just one more in a sea of largely nameless, faceless sacrifices – and yet… she’s different, somehow. She’s the only one who’s cared, the only one who’s shown genuine interest in him beyond the pleasures his body can bring her.
And if she ever found out the truth, everything would come crashing down.

Summary
Lan Huan scrolls through Wei Ying’s profile, and the gentle tap of his finger against the screen shudders through Lan Zhan like the screech of a misplayed note. His whole body is tense, and he exhales slowly, working to unclench his jaw by degrees.
“It says here,” Lan Huan says with characteristic good humour, “that he’s looking for fun.” He nudges Lan Zhan with the tip of his toe. “You could do with some fun in your life.”
Lan Zhan could do with a new brother. “No,” he says, shifting out of Lan Huan’s range. “Thank you.”
---
When his brother creates a dating profile for him, Lan Zhan doesn't expect to match with the most obnoxious vendor at the Farmers' Market. Wei Ying is looking for fun, Lan Zhan wants out of this mess, and Lan Huan just wants his brother to be happy.

"Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."
Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.
"Really, uncle?"
"Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."
Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?
